Krátky popis
'Riveting . . . Honnold is neither crazy nor reckless. Alone on the
Wall reveals him to be an utterly unique and extremely appealing
young man' - Jon Krakauer, bestselling author of Into the Wild.This
updated edition contains the account of Alex's El Capitan climb,
which is the subject of the Oscar and BAFTA winning documentary,
Free Solo.Alex Honnold is one of the world's best 'free solo'
climbers, he scales impossible rock faces without ropes, pitons or
any support of any kind. Exhilarating, brilliant and dangerous,
there is a purity to Alex's climbs that is easy to comprehend, but
also impossible to fathom, in the last forty years, only a handful
of climbers have pushed themselves as far, 'free soloing' to the
absolute limit of human capabilities. Half of them are dead. From
Yosemite's famous Half Dome to the frighteningly difficult El
Sendero Luminoso in Mexico, Alone on the Wall explores Alex's seven
most extraordinary climbing achievements so far. These are tales to
make your palms sweat and your feet curl with vertigo. Together,
they get to the heart of how - and why - Alex does what he does.
Exciting, uplifting and truly awe-inspiring, Alone on the Wall is a
book about the essential truth of being free to pursue your
passions and the ability to maintain a singular focus, even in the
face of mortal danger.
